  1. Ladies do seem to like it. I recently got chatting to a lady who tried to talk her Mr out of his stunning Caymen and into my 350. I was half tempted to suggest a swap, but she was too tall...
  2. Extremely helpful, as always, thanks.
  3. I like the look of The Strong. The Carnauba v The Strong. Is the only difference that the carnauba leaves a surface especially well prepped for a wax layer? Or is their cleaning power noticeably different? Also I noticed the LPL is friendly to DA application, can the same be said of the Werkstat offerings?
  4. I've got Poorboys White Diamond as my current glaze, I was looking for something that cleans it all up real nice before pilling in with the shine/protection layers.
  5. I'm just at the point of having not enough of this left in the bottle to do the whole car. Ordinarily I have a list of several products to try when one runs out, but I've not got anything on the list in this space I've been very happy with Lime Prime Lite, it leaves a nice clean surface shine for building up protection, but I'm always on the look out for something new to try and bolster the aresnal. Any suggestions before I re-order LPL? Ta.
  6. I just took a full screen grab and then cropped it. alt+printscreen in windowz then open mspaint an ctrl+v to paste it in mac users cmd+shift+3 and then it appears on your desktop
  7. to Zed club, everyone loves them! Most people who have asked me also have no idea of the value, they always assume big figures too.
  8. If I wasn't buying a house I'd be all over this like Lohan on a mirror.
  9. I got it off ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STP-CARB-SPRAY-CLEANER-500ml-/180699918844?ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:GB:3160 But if you prefer amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Carb-Spray-Cleaner-500ml-carburettor/dp/B004PZP62S Couldn't see STP at 'frauds but I doubt there's much in it when it's not being used as directed Don't do this to yourselves unless you really must, it's like painting the Forth Bridge
  10. Yeah, could have mixed it up with something else. Is it me or are they getting tight on the atomisers for the bottles???
  11. OMG I've never done anything so labour intensive that yields so little obvious rewards!!!! I threw two hours at this and apart from almost entirely separating my index finger from its nail and I'm no longer certain my toothbrush is going to be ok for my teeth any more I've made this much progress, both sides. Obviously did the general bay plastics for a nice easy win with some diluted APC. Before: After: 50/50: Carb cleaner is an absolute must to anyone who recommend it. I tried some engine cleaner/degreaser, and it removed precisely nothing. However, when you get some of this unknown matter off, and it starts to look shiny, it all becomes worth while. This is going to be a project in itself an hour or two each weekend to work my way around
  12. All depends doesn't it, lots of ways to go about it, all right if you get the correct result Sent from the golf club... That's why Bill invented hidden "helper" columns
  13. Would a nested IF statement suffice, if the variety of text options in the column wasn't too broad?
  14. Is a toothbrush too aggressive for getting in there, real deep like?
  15. Might put a couple of hours into this tomorrow, got some carb cleaner lying around.
  16. You've captured the challenge of it very well with those words I ike this aspect a lot in a short kart circuit, where you get many, many goes at each bend, and then you just find it and a quarter second drops off your lap time, then you go looking for other snips of time that are hiding out there.
  17. I can't believe its actually out and about! Awesome scenes, awesome build, awesome non-sleeping skills and awesome commitment and awesomeballz for getting it out there too with it all coming together so late on! Looks like a tremendous team effort that you've led. You must be hugely proud at getting this [very nearly] done. Congratz and good luck!
  18. I had such an exciting blend of fun and sheer terror on my two track days in the Zed. I couldn't quite shake the feeling that a small fail or a split second poor decision could see her written off. Each to their own but both days I went insured, otherwise it would have beed just terror and no fun at all . For a £100 with no excess it wasn't even a decision. If I went down the casino and they offered me the chance to bet £6k to win £100 I wouldn't even entertain those odds, certainly not as my Zed means more to me than the amount it would cost to replace. Even with the insurance I never felt fully relaxed and certainly not as brave as when I strap a kart to my @ss. Consequently, the Zed won't see any more track, to relax and learn I want something where I'll be going slower if it all goes wrong and that I could chalk up to experience if it ended up being recovered off to a scrappy.
  19. And now it is! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Auto-Finesse-DES200-Desire-Car/dp/B007FR4PQQ/ Must... Resist... Could... not... resist...
